My GOD,if Ricketts can't make the move to fire Hendry & (maybe Quade )right now,when in hell is he going to do it? You bring in a Bob Brenly right now as a President,GM or field manager just to "shake the tree". DO SOMETHING,I'm going to jump off the top row of the bleachers,enough is a fucking enough....ARGH!

Ricketts won't do shit until the offseason and don't be surprised if both finish out their contracts next season.

Not as scary looking as ARAM running to first on a groundball.

Q: Do you like the emotion from Z, breaking the bat?

A: No. I don't like when he does that.

Q: Do you say something to him?

A: No. He knows how I feel.

In fairness to Quade,this team is terrible.
No Power: check
No Starting Pitching: check
Limited speed: check
Terrible fielding: check
Uncaring veterans: mini-check (Fuks,Zambrano,Soto doing OK)

Feel free to add to this.

What would a different manager have done tonight? Seriously, get off of Quade's nuts for things that are out of his control. Yes he's not great, yes he's done things I've disagreed with, but blaming him for the majority of what ails this team is really stupid

Quade is no dumber than any other big league manager. That doesn't mean he shouldn't be critiqued on his decisions.

The Cub would not be appreciably better with any other manager this year. Now, with another GM...

True, but he never should have been hired. Look what Kirk Gibson's intensity has brought to AZ. Quade's hand clapping approach is minor league all the way. Gibson will bench your ass if you don't bust your ass.

you know it takes a lot to piss me off. This game got to me in the 3rd they had a lead off double end of order and you do not bunt? WTF that is a sure sign of a manager who is lost control of everything.

Bunting is stupid. Why give away an out?

The sooner Ozzie learns that the better.

Why did Quade not have a RH ready along with Marshall when it was obvious Marmol didn't have it? Instead Pence blasts a 3 run bomb. Managing 101. I guess Quade missed that course.

I'll take my chances with a man on 2nd and 3 outs to get him in.

Get him over to third with less than 2 outs and a fly ball will get him in, it's pretty simple.

That is called fundemental baseball. The Cubs cannot do it. Once again back to the piss poor manager and his GM.
